COLUMBIA DIVISION
Dedicate Their New Hall on Art Street Last Evcnfng-An Interes GceRRi0n

Dedicate Their New Hall on Arthur
 Street Last Eycnfng-An Interestine
 Occasion.
 Last evening Columbia division Mo- 54 ot the Sons of Temperance of this State dedi cated their new hall at No. 50 Arthur street Members of the division in West Haven, Or ange and Milford, besides those who are members of the divisions in this city, were present and joined heartily in the ceremony of dedication.
 The worthy patriarch of Columbia, Will liam c. Scobie, through whose generosity the hall was built, called the meeting to order and invited to the chair the grand worthy patriarch of the order in this State, Charles A. Baldwin, who is member of Harmony division of this city.
 MT. Baldwin conducted the dedication ex- ercises according to the prescribed form of dedication of all halls under control of the order.
 The ceremony, simple but impressive, con- sists of responses made by the different off, cers of the division, after which the grand worthy sprinkles water upon the floor, dedi- eating the hall to love, purity and fidelity the motto of the order.
 After the formal ceremony the social pro- gramme prepared by w. s. Foote, chairman of the committee, was carried out.
 The grand worthy patriarch made an earn est temperance address congratulating Colum- bia on its past success and urging its mem bers to still greater efforts. Remarks were also made by Rev. M. $. Phillips and George w. Babb. Miss Amelia Scobie gave reading and c. Mason an harmonica solo.
 The Young Mems Orchestral club, Frank Haines leader, furnished the music.
 Columbia division, which was organized through the efforts of George R. Bill, the we'll known temperance advocate, and who had been member of Harmony division for more than thirty years, was instituted Sep tember 6, 1886, and has at present about one hundred members. They first met in the Howard avenue Congregational church, whose pastor, Rev. William J. Mutch, is promi- nent member. Finding these quarters incon- venient they removed to the Episcopal mis- sion chapel on Rosette street. They now occupy one of the most convenient halls in the city. It is set somewhat back from the street, but this is decided advantage as it frees the hall from the annoyances which are occasioned by noise in the street. There are now nine divisions of the ffty-five in the State who occupy halls dedicated to the work of temperance.

sw1NDL1NG ON A BIG SCALE.
A supposed Partner of Brewer Betts
 Does Some Fall Fleecine.

| DUcB some Ea1k F1eeCAnSs
 | PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 15.-The mystery
 which has been thrown around the departure from this city of Emil Schoenberg, who has ! for some time been supposed to be partner of John F. Betts the millionaire brewer in
 some of his enterprises, is gradually being
 cleared up and the startling statement is
 made that he is forger to & large amount.
 He was supposed to have been associated
 with MT. Betts in the construction of new
 opera house in the northwestern part of the
 city. By reason of holding $155, ,000 of stock
 he was made the president of the Germania
 Brewing company, new corporation. MT.
 Betts states that Schoenberg has forged his
 name and he intends to have him arrested if
 he can be arrested. Mir. Betts in relation to
 the firm of Betts & Schoenberg says that it
 never existed and that when the Germania
 brewery was projected he went into it as a
 stockholder and Schoenberg took $125, 900
 worth of the stock. Schoenberg did not have the ready cash and therefore he borrow ed the money from several banks in this city. giving as security variety of paper which was then thought to be good, but it has since transpired that the signatures and endorse ments upon some of the paper were forgeries. The names of Mir. Betts and s. K. Nestor, of Geneva, were attached without the consent of either. Soon after Schoenberg disappeared Investigation showed that Mir. Nestor and Betts and the banks that made the first ad- vances were not the only victims, as forged paper was found in several other banks. Brewer Yuenging of New York, E. F. Foulterer and David w. Stewart are also among those whom Schoenberg had deeced and even now it is not known whether the end has been reached, for now and then 3 creditor to greater or less sum turns up and there may be others yet to hear from. ! As far as the investigation has been carried l on Schoenberg's indebtedness has been shown \ % be about 5000 Sehoenberg is report ] d to have been seen in Chicago within a ! :ew days and when asked as to his intention I 'aid he was going further west.

MT. Nestor is out | bout S90, 900, MT. Stewart about $13,000 I IT. Poulterer $7,000 and Brewer Yuengling | 8 ono. The available assets are Schoenberg's o and some negotiable collateral, but the l ai between liabilities will be $175, 5,OOO, epresenting the results of MT. Schoenberg's iplomacy.

VI AS N NKAUH6A nE Y A CANARW. Ahe Report That an American Fisher. man Had Been Fired On and Sunk by Canadian Cruiser.

! AAo ANePofG 1Aat an American Fisher
 man Had Been Fired On and Sunk l by Canadian Cruiser.
 | HALIFAX, N. S., Aug. 15.-There is nc
 confirmation here of the report telegraphed from Ottawa that Canadian cruiser had | fired upon and sunk an American fisherman l of Bucktouch, causing the loss of all on board. The report eminated from Buctouch, outside of which place positively nothing is known Many telegrams of inquiry have been sent to Buotouch and vicinity, but so far no information has been elicited What ever foundation there is for the report, it
 seems certain that the people of Buctouch
 have been talking about the matter for sev-
 eral days. The affair must have either been
 seen by someone or the rumor must have
 originated in and been confined to that place
 for some little time before it reached the ont
 side world:
 It has beeh learned positively that reports
 of gun were heard off Buctoueh harbor
 some days ago between and o'clock in the
 morning. The story then goes that man
 came up to the village from the shore and
 reported that an unknown Dominion cruiser
 had dismantled and sunk an American fish,
 erman, the vessel going down with every soul on board. So far as cad be ascertained, the vessels were too far out from shore for any rowboat to render as sistance, but on this point no substantial details can be had The whole is thus discredited, as it is not to be believed that men would stand idly gazing upon vessel disappearing beneath the waves without making the slightest effort to rescue the perishing. Coupled with the rumors, and of the same unconfrmed character, is the statement that there was another United States fisherman in the vicinity at the time and after one sank the cruiser gave chase to the other. It is impossible to say what gave rise to the reports in the first instance. The Associated Press has reliable intelligence to the effect that gun shots were actually heard off Buctouch on fishermen of the locality used this occurrence to form the basis of sensational story for the delectation of the village cannot be posi- lively stated, but it is the only reasonable explanation. Commander Scott said this after noon that it might be verp easy matter for | a six-pound shot from cruiser to sink I schooner, but if such an event did happen | 5he fishing department would receive the Il particulars at once. There were a few fish | n the water off Buctouch, but not ! sufficient to take Americans into those | waters. The cruisers are paying little attention to what is going on at 'r near Buctouch, their services being re- luired elsewhere. The Buctouch district is covered by the cruisers Advance and L'Hou- cite, but they have not been known to be in I hat vicinity for several weeks. Consul Gen. ral Phelan is also impressed with the belief hat there is no foundation for the report

It affords me pleasure to give you this report Of the of our little grandchild by your CUTIcURA REMEDIES. When six months old his left hand be- gan to swell and had every appearance of 8 large boil We poulticed it, but all to purpose. About five months after it became running sore. Soon other sores formed He then had two of them on each hand and as his blood became more and more impure 1t took less time for them to break out. A sore came on the chin, beneath the under lip which very offensive. His head was solid Scab discharging great deal. This his condition at twenty two months old when I undertook the care of him, his mother having died when he little more than year old of consumption (scrofula of course) He could walk little, but could not get up if he fell down and could not move when in bed, having of his hands. l immediately com menced with the Cuticura Remedies, using the Cuticura and Cutcura Soap freely, and when he had taken bottle of the Cuticura ReSovent, his head completely cured and he was improved in every way. We were very much encouraged and con- tinued the use of the Remedies for a year and half. One after another healed, bonY matter forming in each of these five deep ones just be- fore healing, which would finally grow loose and were taken out; then they would heal rapidly One of these ugly bone formations I preserved. After taking a dozen and half bottles he complete ly cured and is now, at the age of six years, a strong and healthy child. The scars on his hands must always remain; his hands strong, though once feared he would never be able to use them. All that physicians did for him did him no good. All who saw the child before using the Cutcura Reme- dies and see the child now consider it wonderful cure If the above facts are of any use to you, you at liberty to use them. MRS. E. s. DR1GGS.
